Amplification of Primordial Magnetic Fields by Anisotropic Gravitational Collapse
Emma J. King, Peter Coles
If a magnetic field is frozen into a plasma that undergoes spherical compression then the magnetic field B varies with the plasma density ρaccording to B \propto ρ^{2/3}. In the gr…
Phase Correlations and Topological Measures of Large-scale Structure
Peter Coles
In these lecture notes I discussed the importance of phase correlations for the morphology of large-scale structure and how phase analysis can probe primordial non-Gaussianity and/…
Large-scale Structure with the SKA
Peter Coles
A standard theoretical paradigm for the formation of large-scale structure in the distribution of galaxies has now been established, based on the gravitational instability of cold…
Statistical Properties of Cosmological Fluctuations
Peter Coles
In this pedagogical lecture, I introduce some of the basic terminology and description of fluctuating fields as they occur on cosmology. I define various statistical, cosmological…
The Wave Mechanics of Large-scale Structure
Peter Coles
I review the basic ``gravitational instability'' model for the growth of structure in the expanding Universe. This model requires the existence of small initial irregularities in t…
Large-Scale Structure, Theory and Statistics
Peter Coles
I review the standard paradigm for understanding the formation and evolution of cosmic structure, based on the gravitational instability of dark matter, but many variations on this…
